Rec'd a sample bottle today from my son. This is the Eagle Rare barrel that he helped pick for a local store. My palate is nothing special, so I may not have all the right words to describe this, but it greatly exceeds any other regular Eagle Rare bottles I have tasted. There was a blast of fruit in the initial nose, which then subsided to wood and some leather. Flavor was delicious. I'm terrible at describing what I taste, but I do know good from bad. LOL. It also clearly hit above the ABV belt for a 90 proof bourbon. I should be getting my own bottle soon and I can't wait.

By the way, he mentioned that nose was a big reason why they picked this one. Another reason was age. It's nearly 13 years old as opposed to the typical ER 10 year bottles.

Yesterday was 2 years since my dad passed and as he was a huge Wild Turkey fan I had pour for him. Still can’t get over how much I like this, though I may be biased

Damn this is spicy. Significantly more so than any batch they’ve done to date. Spiciest wheater I’ve ever had. B523 was awesome, C923 was not quite on that level and sadly, this one steps down even further. Hoping this one gets better with some breathing time because this drinks real hot. It’s not bad but definitely one I won’t pursue a backup of.

Forgot how good this Michter's is!

Curious to know what you think of that. My dad was born and raised in Jeannette and I still have family that I visit living in that area. Cask strength rye is my preferred whiskey and I’m always looking for something new to try. I might pick up one next time I’m up there.

I miss that bottle a lot. Used to be available in PA for $28.99. Haven't seen it in over a year...

 

[gopherblue]

Tip your bartender.

3.5+ oz, 1 oz pour of WLW.

That one in the middle hits a little different. Congrats on the find.

I don't usually spend this much on a bottle but I have never tried it and won $2,500 on NC State alone with this North Carolina sports betting bonuses and I'm a Tar Heel guy. I bought it because my good friend went to State and they haven't done a run like this in 41 years, plus they beat dook. It's been a freaking amazing run. Like '83 they wouldn't have even been in the Big Dance without winning the ACC Tournament and had to beat UNC. So knowing how the ACC can play, I used NCSU in a bunch of parlays knowing there was a chance. Hit a bunch of them. Got more bets on them with freerolls, why not? When a casino gives you an edge, take it.

I'm hosting a scotch, bourbon, cigars and wings Final 4 party on Saturday. No poker. Hope it's good. My first scotch pour was JW Blue.

How many cases do you want?

It’s on the shelf of every store I frequent for $31.99. It was $28.99 last year before the price got bumped up. Great bottle for the $$

Night three. Same town, different hotel bar.

There’s a GTS and THH hiding back there too. Wait your turn, fellas.

 

[gopherblue]

Do I want to buy the Sazerac 18, 2/3 full, from the bar for $350 or so?

 

[Billy Baroo]

Is that a rhetorical question?

 

[gopherblue]

so that’s a yes?

 

[Billy Baroo]

I didn’t say no lol

Do you have to fly?

 

[gopherblue]

Do you have to fly?

Yes. But I can check a bag. Lol

 

[Klobberer]

Yes. But I can check a bag. Lol

I flew to London in 1989 with a bottle of Wild Turkey and a bottle of Cuervo (I was 21) in my packed bag. Didn't turn out well...
